Commander(s)

TWE-Grey

<div class="IPBDescription">Idea.</div>I'm aware that this mod just came out.  And it might get easier as we all get better.  But in my opinion it just seems like there is a whole lot of stuff that the commander has to do. Like build the structures, find out where to build them, keep an eye on the battle, give his soldiers armour and weapons etc, and give waypoints.  It just seems to me that one person isn't enough to do all of this, so I think having two commanders would be more productive.  I've just noticed while playing that the commander doesn't get too many chances to give waypoints, and that makes some mad, which pisses me off because  I don't want to listen to their yelling.  I'm keeping in mind that this is all very new to all of us, but I think if about a month or two this still goes on, I would consider opening another spot up for commander.

Thanks for your time, Grey

Hi! anyway i believe that you can build an secondary command station so i think that should accomplish what you are trying to say... <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->  hi, ive played this game 4 times now. lol

the commander job seems an imposible task at first, but my first time commanding i got us to victory and it wasn't all that hard (might have been because of the bug but that's another story).

Tip: use the jump key (space) to go directly to the person asking for orders/health/ammo.  If you hear somebody say "i need health" via the VGUI menu (not HL voice) then you hit jump and your view will go right to them.

Tip: BIND BIND BIND!  There are like 30 binds for commander in the controls menu, they help a LOT, at LEAST bind the weapons/ammo/health binds.

Tip: Commanders should have a mic. Period.  If the commander doesn't have a mic he has to type out everything to his subordinates, and that makes his job 10x harder.

These both make commanding a LOT easier, insted of taking 10 seconds to drop some shotguns, with the binds it only takes 2 (key, click, key, click, with no mouse movement).

And finding the people that need ammo/health is a lot easier with jump button.
